07-29-2021 Ride

Ride with Blair and Nicholas after work after a stressful day trying to lock down a COVID-19 test that would be ready in time for my flight on Saturday (it was ready the next morning).  We headed down W Bernardo Dr to Duenda Rd and turned right to get over to RB Rd, which we took up to Espola Rd, keeping a decent but not scorching pace.  I talked them into doing the little climb up to Poway Rd, and I felt strong enough (with the help of a tailwind) to keep it above 10 mph all the way up (first time in a long time).  Then we headed down Poway Rd to Community Rd, over to Twin Peaks Rd, and from there back to the site the normal way.  Other than that one stretch, I spent the rest of the ride either just in front of the others or riding with Nicholas.  Weather was fairly decent on this ride.

Avg speed = 15.0 mph. Total mileage = 17.0 mi
Avg heartrate = 130 bpm
Total elevation gain = 1230'
